NSF has a pile of new/revised RFPs that are on the verge of release. This may be the first of a solicitation flood:<br><br><b>1) NSF Math and Science Partnership (MSP):</b> (<a href="http://www.nsf.gov/funding/pgm_summ.jsp?pims_id=5756">http://www.nsf.gov/funding/pgm_summ.jsp?pims_id=5756</a>) From the synopsis:<br>
<br><div style="margin-left: 40px;">The Math and Science Partnership (MSP) program is a major research and
development effort that supports innovative partnerships to improve K-12
student achievement in mathematics and science. MSP projects are
expected to raise the achievement levels of all students and
significantly reduce achievement gaps in the STEM performance of diverse
student populations. MSP projects contribute to what is known in K-12
STEM education. All STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and
Mathematics) fields supported by NSF may be involved in this work, with
special encouragement to areas that are gaining increased traction at
the K-12 level, such as computer science and engineering, in addition to
mathematics and science. MSP projects also serve as models that have a
sufficiently strong evidence/research base to improve STEM education
outcomes for all students. <br></div><br>Prototype proposals may request up to $1.5 million for up to 3 years; Implementation proposals may request up to $8 million for up to 5 years. All proposals are due March 5.<br><br>
